Immortal Earthbound Poem by Brooklyn Joy

Tensening whispers reign throughout, a thought that filled my heart with doubt
Soft it rests within my breast heavily hanging and deeply oppressed
I seize it tight trying to flout, its meaning its purpose to do without

The thought the idea that weighs so heavy, has grown for years epic and Chevy
The red the crimson is all I see when I close my eyes to a tolerable degree
If only my sleep could come to pass so many lives I seem to surpass

The dark the dreary it stains my world seeping deep it lies unfurled
Beyond this grayscale my eye does not reach beyond the night I do not breech
My thirst consumes all living reason to human kind I’ve committed treason

Pain a feeling nothing more, hollow and empty a scabbing sore
Life a continuous burning flame, I extinguish the source without a shame
My veins burdened coagulated and black; my heart’s beating has come to a slack

Here I stay in my perfective tense; everlasting in a visual sense
Yet to the world I do not exist; human life will eternally persist
Further and Further it goes to stay; to the obscured I leave a spiritual bouquet

Alone in my sadden state of unrest, alone in a crowd like an unwelcome guest
So their tears will forever whisper, unmovable thoughts clearer and crisper
Depart away depart the day, depart the life that has been set to stay
